[Verse 1]
I've been flyin'
Naked, dyin'
Behind, now I go ahead
Just to see
How long I can breathe
[Bridge]
Somewhere else to be
I'll stay away with all the work to be done
I'll be bleedin' as you bake in the sun
Do I have to be good all the time
When I can just leave?
[Verse 2]
How to measure
Weight like pressure, so long as my navigation is working, I know
Tissue, fryin', pressure, culture
No train in the station is going so far that you and your nation won't try to deny
Climbing, tissue, fryin', treasure
How much you need me, me
Pleasure, pleasure, pleasure
[Bridge]
Somewhere else to be
Pleasure, pleasure
I'll stay away
All the work that I've done
And the races that I ran in your name
I keep risin' above all the time
But I can just leave
[Bridge]
Space, space
Bathing space
Under, under
Under you
Tissue, fryin', pleasure, culture
Under, under, under you, under, under, under you
Climbing, tissue, fryin', treasure
Magic, space, space, space, under, under, under you, magic
Pleasure, pleasure, pleasure, pleasure, pleasure
Space, space, space, under, under, under you, magic
[Bridge]
Some, somewhere else to be
Somewhere else to be
Somewhere else to be
Somewhere else to be
Somewhere else to be
[Outro]
Pressure
Culture
Under, under you
Climbin'
Bathing space
Tissue
Under, under
Fryin'
Be glad
Be glad, mm-mm
Pleasure, pleasure, pleasure
Waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting
How long I can breathe
